Definitions
- This invention relates to a cast structural element used in the construction of buildings, walls and the like.
- Buildings and walls are constructed using various techniques and structural elements. These include using building blocks such as bricks which are packed in off-set layers with mortar between adjoining bricks and layers to secure the bricks to each other.
- Walls may also be created by placing panels between upright supports.
- the panels may comprise precast concrete or cement, or fibrous or other compressed material in so-called dry-walling.
- a wall is to be to cast-in-place, in which case formwork is constructed to define a volume that the wall will occupy once cast.
- the formwork is filled with wet concrete or cement to fill the cavities and cure over time. Once cured sufficiently the formwork is removed to allow final curing of the wall.
- buildings also require foundations, floors and ceilings.
- ceilings In double storey buildings it is common for the ceiling of one level to function as the floor for the next level.
- Such a floor or ceiling is commonly constructed by placing precast concrete slabs on support beams, or it is cast in situ.
- insulation board is glued to the exterior of a single or double wall and rendered to harden and waterproof the wall. This leaves the insulation board vulnerable to environmental damage and aging.

- FIG. 1 A first embodiment of a cast structural element (1 ) according to the invention is shown in Figures 1 to 3.
- This cast structural element (1 ) comprises a matrix of cast structural material (2) at least partly containing a sheet of insulation material (3).
- the structural material (2) comprises concrete and the insulating material (3) comprises magnesium oxide.
- the insulating material (3) is provided in the form of a magnesium oxide panel (5) which is partially embedded within the concrete (4), having concrete (4) on both sides thereof to effectively sandwich it.
- the concrete (4) is cast around the magnesium oxide panel (5) to bind with it and cure to form the structural element (1 ).
- the structural element (1 ) thus comprises a cast building block (6) which can be used to construct a wall, floor panel or ceiling panel with integrated thermal insulation.
- the building block (6) has offset ends (7A, 7B), with the insulating panel (3) being fully aligned with a panel of concrete (4A) on one end (7A) but with the second panel of concrete (4B) being offset by a predetermined length at the same end (7A) of the aligned insulating panel and first concrete panel. This creates a step (7) in the ends of the building block (6).
- the insulating panel extends beyond both ends of the two panels (4A, 4B) between which is located. This provides a stepped end (7B) to the block that is different to the first described stepped end (7A).
- step ends (7A, 7B) in the building block (6) allow for two blocks (6A, 6B) to be located end-to-end with the stepped ends (7A, 7B) dovetailing onto each other, whilst leaving a mortar gap (8A, 8B) of predetermined width between the aligned concrete panels of the two block (6A, 6B). This is shown in the detail of Figure.
- This first embodiment of the cast structural element (1 ) according to the invention includes two concrete panels (4A, 4B) sandwiching a single insulating panel of magnesium oxide (5).
- This provides a building block (6) which may be used for a single wall construction, floor panel or ceiling panel.
- FIG. 4 A second embodiment of a cast structural element (20) according to the invention is shown in Figures 4 and 5.
- This cast structural element (20) comprises a sandwich of two spaced apart insulating panels (21 A, 21 B) within a matrix of three spaced apart concrete panels (22A, 22B, 22C). It includes two outer concrete panels (22A, 22C) within which two insulation material panels (21 A, 21 B) are located spaced apart by a central concrete panel (22B).
- This cast structural element (20) also forms a building block (23). It also includes stepped ends (24A, 24B) which allows for such blocks (23) to be located end-to-end (25) for structural integrity purposes, as shown in Figure 5.
- the outer panels (22A, 22C) and the central panel (22B) of this cast structural element (20) are concrete panels.
- the insulating panels (21 A, 21 B) are magnesium oxide panels.
- the two insulating panels (21 A, 21 B) are located on opposite sides of the central concrete panel (22B), each having a concrete panel (22A, 22C) on its outside.
- the centrally located concrete panel (22B) is stepped at its ends, with it being aligned at one end (24A) with the one insulating panel (21 B) and stepped out beyond the end of the other insulating panel (21 A), and at the other end (24B) being set back from both insulating panels (21 A, 21 B).
- two blocks (23) of this second embodiment (20) may be aligned end to end to align and to provide mortar gaps (25-27) of predetermined thickness.
- the building blocks (6, 23) are cast with each of the panels that comprise it having a typical thickness of about 40mm. This provides the first embodiment (6) with a thickness of about 120mm and the second embodiment (23) with a thickness of about 200mm, which is similar to standard single and double wall thicknesses.
- the cast structural elements (1 , 20) don't only function as building blocks for walls. These may also be used for floors or ceilings.
- the structural elements may be reinforced to allow it to bear weight, which is a requisite in some applications.
- the integrated insulating panels within the cast structural elements have significant benefits. They provide predictable and consistent insulating properties to structures. The speed at which a building may be constructed using these structural elements is also increased since the phased construction of a double wall with insulating cladding in its centre is eliminated. The builder simply builds as if the building blocks were normal building blocks or bricks. Of course, if desired the structural elements may be produced with flat ends, i.e. having no offset ends. This may be useful for builders that wish to lay building blocks in a completely conventional manner, which does not use the offset ends or with mortar gaps. The size of the structural elements may also be modified to suit specific purposes.
- the structural elements (1 , 20) are cast by creating a mould and locating one or more insulating panels within it, depending on the embodiment (1 , 20) of the structural element to be created.
- the insulating panel has flat edges allowing it to stand on its edge in the mould.
- the insulating panel (30) may be provided with reinforcing rods (31 ) that extend through it.
- the length by which the ends of each rod (31 ) extend on the both sides of the insulating panel (30) is less than the thickness of the to-be cast concrete panel. This ensures that the rods (31 ) are completely contained within the final cast structural element on either side.
- the panel (30) may be braced within the mould, for example by means of clamps to its upper edge. These can be removed once the mould has been filled, to allow for full contact between the concrete on the surfaces of the insulating panel (30).
- edges of the insulating panel (30) are in contact with the bottom and ends of the mould, and the top edge of the insulating panel (30) is level with the top of the mould. This means the two concrete panels on opposite sides of the insulating panel do not contact each other, making for true sandwich configuration.
- the insulating panel only with one edge, for example the bottom edge, against the mould surface. In such instance the ends and top edge of the insulating panel would not extend to the mould ends and top, allowing concrete to be cast around those edges of the insulating panel.
- FIG. 7 A third embodiment (40) of a cast structural element according to the invention is shown in Figure 7.
- an insulation panel (41 ) of magnesium oxide is located between two cast concrete panels (42A, 42B).
- a ceramic tile (43A, 43B) To the outer surface of each concrete panel (42A, 42B) there is affixed a ceramic tile (43A, 43B), having the same length and width as the two panels (42A, 42B).
- This allows the building block (40) so-formed to be used as block in wall that is intended to have a tiled surface on both sides, for example for an inner wall in a building.
- the block (40) is thus provided with a finished surface (in the form of the ceramic tile).
- surface finishes other than ceramic tiles may be used, for example porcelain tiles, or other types of decorative surface finishes.
- insulating material other than a magnesium oxide panel. It is also possible to use a structural material other than concrete, for example other cementitious materials.
- the cast structural element with engaging formations other than one the ends thereof. It is for example possible to form complimentary engaging formations along the top and bottom edges thereof. It is also possible to form engaging formations other than steps, for example by forming a tongue and groove formation at the ends or along the top and bottom edges.
